Speaker 1: Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Valterra Drinking Water Hose Storage Caps, part number A0171VP. When storing your fresh water hose, don't take a chance on what may have crawled inside. The Valterra Storage Caps fit onto each end of your hose giving you peace of mind that you're getting the freshest water possible. They even feature a keeper, so it'll always remain attached to your hose. Each cap is vented to allow moisture to escape, so you don't have to worry about mildew either. They are standard size, so if you hose fits into your city water connection on your RV or camper, these are going to fit.
One of our customers, Big D, says The little things in life. These are perfect for keeping the water hose free of debris and keeping the ends clean. Capping them makes the hose less susceptible to contaminating the water system and causing you illness.That going to complete at the Valterra Drinking Water Hose Storage Caps, part number A0171VP.
It seems weird to give such a simple product a 5-star review. But it's well made and it does the job it was designed for. What more could you ask for?
Always use the caps to keep your fresh water hose clean.

No sense to have a sanitary fresh water hose if you do not make an effort to keep the ends out of the dirt and clean during handling. Use these keep your hose ends capped. I then put a sandwich bag over the hose ends whenever I temporarily lay the hose on the ground while getting ready to make connections.
Maintaining a ‘99 Coachmen’s Catalina Sport and time has me obtaining replacement parts from etrailer.
No matter how big or how small the part, I have found it here. Quality parts and fast shipping.. If I have to replace it, etrailer is the place I find it.. Great service!
Did the trick!
Great service!
Water hose storage caps function as expected. Purchased these to protect my water pressure regulator while not on shore hookup. Vent holes prevent bacteria growth by allowing the pressure regulator to dry. Easily attached using stretch cords.
I use these to keep those darn earwigs dirt and dust out of my hose fittings on the trailer. Perfect fit, and convenient.
These as a must have for RV'er. We have been using these for years and they do keep things from getting into your hoses. etrailer,com has the best price I could find by far. Thanks etrailer.com ;-)
Sanitation is critical for fresh water hose, and these are perfect. Could also be useful for wash out hose I carry to prevent leaks, maybe in a different color?
Nice & convenient. I didn't explain to the wife that they stay on the hose & after she did the water hookup once, the male cap was lost.
great for water hose storage
As always etrailer had what I needed at a good price, keep up the good work.
I received my order very quickly as usual from etrailer and happy with the product
I used the male threaded plug to close off my water fill port. Worked perfectly.
Great way to keep clean water hoses cle an
A great accessary to have to seal up potable hose water ends.

Great! Still flexible and seals
excellent product and it does just what I wanted. At a Corps-of-Engineers campground I string out 350 feet of hose to fill our freshwater tank from the bathhouse. These keep the hose ends clean but allow the hoses to air out and dry.
After using these caps on several RV trips I am very satisfied with their operation.
Arrive very quickly, even with the virus restrictions. Well packed, exactly as represented.
Keeps caps exactly where they are needed
Caps fit perfectly and look great.
Just what I needed to replace the rotten caps I had. Thanks for the fast shipment.
